Purpose: To report a case of a 9-year-old girl who complained of a floater symptom due to preretinal hemorrhage, subdural hemorrhage and arachnoid cyst.
Case summary: A 9-year-old girl presented to our clinic with floater symptom in her right eye and a headache. Her corrected visual acuities were 20/20 in both eyes. Preretinal hemorrhage around the optic disc in both eyes was observed. Brain MRI revealed subdural hemorrhage on the frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes, and the arachnoid cyst in the right fronto-temporal lobe. One year later, the preretinal hemorrhages were absorbed.
Conclusions: Arare case of concomitant preretinal and spontaneous subdural hemorrhage with arachnoid cyst was presented. The utilization of brain MRI is recommended to determine underlying causes when fundus examination reaveals retinal hemorrhage without trauma, systemic disease and neurologic symptom.
